Peer review via cryptographically signed endorsement lists, scored by how often endorsers agree with you

François Fleuret suggested that the future of peer review — if any — is every researcher maintaining a cryptographically signed list of papers and colleagues they endorse. Nanjiang replied: endorse (or evaluate) papers, not people. If A and B both evaluate the same paper, their (dis)agreement can update each other's score, so when you see a new paper you also see "endorsed by X, who has a correlation of 0.YY with you" — a fully personalized trust signal.
